Aloha all!
After much discussion with Benzart and my friend Dominique Rice of Oceania, Etc. in Delray Beach, FL, this thread is going to serve as a gallery for Domi's own hand painted art. To avoid any potential controversy, we're playing it safe by putting it in "Beyond Tiki".
All the art you are seeing is handpainted by Dominique. She paints a wide range of items. Please enjoy.
Lets start off with her Molas animal series
Molas Alligator
Molas Bull, double frame
Molas Pig
Closeup of "Molas Pig"
Molas Pig & Chicken

Rainforest Series, painted furniture
What do you get when you put all of these pieces together in the same room? The start to a pretty lovely room redecoration.
Domi specially painted the furniture seen above for a room in her daughter's house. Gonna display some shots of the furniture in the room itself and then the final product.
Bed footboard
Breakfront
Breakfront wall
Night Stand
Closet wall

Thinking of some Carribean vibrant color? No problem.
Here is a sample of one of Domi's bright color series.
Remember that armoire from earlier? Here is a matching table and chairs on display in Oceania, Etc.
I believe this may be a closeup of the table top.
Here a lot of object paited for her Beach Series.
A closeup of the Christmas balls under the table.

For those of you coming to Hukilau 2005, be sure to look for Domi's table in the Tiki Bazaar. She may even be painting as you walk up.

As a shameless plug, lets see her painting contrasting the more primitive peices from Papua New Guinea and other Melanesian countries.
A wonderful mix of the old and the new.
